Now a days, one of the hottest issues of the educational polices in Korea is concerning teacher policies. The teacher union requires reservation of the 7th curriculum enforcement and returns the reward pay. Another teaching profession Corps strongly demand the restoration of teacher's retirement age from 62 to 65. On the other hand, the students of the elementary teacher training institutes of the whole country demonstrate to rejection illegal policy. That is, the government tries to execute a new policy which is permitting the admission of the overloaded numbers of graduates as enrolles who have the secondly teacher certification in the elementary reacher training institutes. The teachers' morale is also falling down terribly.
All of these phenomena resulted from the absence of educational policy and failure of educational policy.
Some polices were suggested to reconstruct the Korea education and raise the teachers' quality and morale.
ㆍTo raise the quality of teacher, national teacher educational institutes(for elementary teacher and secondary teacher) should be integrated and reorganized. And the private institutes should be readjusted on the basis of the result of accreditation process.
ㆍTeacher recruitment process should be improved to test rather how many things they know than how much they can do.
ㆍSome epochal prescription should be prepared to raise teachers' morale.
